The excitement surrounding Warframe's 1999 expansion continues to build, and now the much-anticipated Techrot Encore update has a confirmed release date of March 19th. This update promises to bring a nostalgic turn-of-the-millennium setting combined with the series' signature action-packed gameplay, and it's stirring up quite the buzz among fans.
Techrot Encore is set to introduce four new Protoframes: Flare, Minerva, Kaya, and Velimir II, each adding their unique flair to the battle. Alongside them, the 60th Warframe, Temple, enters the fray, armed with Techrot Subwoofer minions and a sentient guitar named Lizzie, ready to rock the battlefield.
For those looking for a challenge, the update includes two new endgame stages. In Stage Defense, players will defend Scaldra during a memorial show commemorating fallen comrades in the wake of Scaldra's city takeover. Temporal Archimedea, on the other hand, challenges players to team up with Minerva and Velimir II for three consecutive random missions, with the Peely Pix system introducing variable modifiers to keep things fresh and unpredictable.
Adding a heartwarming touch to the update, Digital Extremes is honoring a Make-A-Wish commitment from James Conlin with the introduction of the Atomicycle racing mini-game. Located in the Höllvania Mall Hub's arcade collection, Ollie's Crash Course promises fun and excitement for all players.
With the Techrot Encore update, the buildup to Tennocon 2025, and the relaunch of an open beta for the upgraded Warframe Companion App, there's no shortage of reasons for Warframe enthusiasts to mark their calendars for March. Whether you're diving into the new content or gearing up for future events, the Warframe universe continues to expand in thrilling ways.
